The Red Lion, Barnes

I loved this pub. It has a great vibe, trendy decoration, outstanding customer service and tasty food. The cod with cauliflower mash and fried calamari and prawns was superb. The wine options are great. Portions are not big but reasonably priced and full of fresh flavours. There is a beautiful garden to enjoy in summer or warmer days and plenty of parking ( inform the pub that you have parked to avoid a fine!) Just went for a drink yesterday and as usual, great service and a lovely wine range!

Lovely place. I chose it as it looked like a nice place to end a summer bike ride along the Thames path with my grown up daughters and it was a perfect decision. It is a beautiful pub in the villagesque setting of Barnes, with a very chilled outside seating area (but the inside pub looked great as well). The staff were all super friendly and welcoming, the service was prompt, and the whole ambience was perfect. We went for a meat burger, a vegan burger, and the chicken schnitzel which were all just right (the schnitzel was home made and served with a very fresh fennel slaw). The menu looked like it had something for everyone at a range of prices to suit everyone, and the bar was well stocked with decent ales, ciders etc. Would thoroughly recommend.

Second visit since moving to the area and it just seems to get better! Superb Sunday roast, dessert was yum and fab wine list. Lovely attentive staff, service was fantastic. We were able to stay over our allocated slot time and they were super flexible with my family’s requests. Gorgeous settings and a nice beer garden and grill too, my little one enjoyed exploring! A roast with a decent wine will set you back about £35- expensive, but honestly it’s worth the price tag imo. Keep up the superb job team, Barnes are lucky to have The Red Lion.

Super pub and huge on the inside. Great outdoor garden and front patio area is also good for catching the sun and watching the world go by. Sunday roasts are a must as we had had many recommendations to try one which we did late last year. Our most recent visit was for a small lunch and drink. I had the chicken club sandwich which comes with triple cooked chips and it was excellent and very well priced. We also tried the steak sandwich again very very nice. The pub is super dog friendly with lots of water bowls and not too cramped inside. Only criticism is there was lots of staff members which can sometimes counter act how long you wait to be served, but the bar was very quick and we did wave down some one to help order our food but we're looked over a few times as I can only assume they thought we were already being served. Well worth a visit and will be back. Photos of my sandwiches 😋
